Mastitis - dog health experiences

I have a female pug who just had pups 11 days ago. She got mastitis and was given antibiotics and an antiflammatory med. Her breast was supposed to be milked with moist heat every two hours. We done this then the next day her breast started leaking the infection out of a small whole like a boil on us would do. I called the vet and they said it was normalfor an absess to do this. Okay well now the little whole O could stick 3 of my fingers in and move them and the vet says to keep clean with peroxide and leave it alone and let it continue to drain. I am truly worried about this. Does anyone know if this is normal? We don't want to loose our dog. Right now we are keeping her wrapped up with white cloth so she doesn't get dirt in it. She is acting a 100% better, buit I am still worried.
Thanks Pearl--------
